Okay room and breakfast but hot water didn't work

We paid $160 for a family of 4. The room was okay and breakfast was good. But the hotel turned off the hot water in the morning for some reason and even after asking them to turn it back on, the water was ice cold and we were never able to take a hot shower.

Rolig Oase midt i det hektiske Arusha. Dejlig overraskelse at komme til efter en relativ primitiv safari. Hotellet ligger i byen og er derfor omringet af det lokale Afrika, som bestemt ikke er særlig turistet eller rigt. Hvilket jeg personlig kun synes giver stedet charme. Selve hotellet består af en række lodges med store rum, dertil hørende restaurant, bar og lounge område, med gratis og relativ hurtig internet. Maden var ok og rimelig billigt. Det samme er drikkevarerne. Stedet bære præg af at være udgangspunkt for safarier og der er derfor næsten ingen mennesker i dag timerne. Man skal være opmærksom på at det er rimeligt dyrt hvis hotellet skal arrangere taxi til lufthavnen eller liggende. Det kan derfor godt betale sig at forhøre sig og lave aftaler med taxi chauffører man tidligere har kørt med eller på anden måde selv arrangere det.

Too noisy!

Rooms and common areas were not well maintained. There is a church next door that blasts music for approximately 2-3 hrs a night ... unable to just relax by the pool with the noise next door.

ok als Backpackerhotel

Die Dusche war ein dünnes Rinnsal ohne warmes Wasser und dass am Sonntagmorgen um 6h (!) in der nebenan gelegenen Kirche der Soundcheck begann, mit nachfolgendem, Stunden dauernden Gottesdienst war einem ruhigen Aufenthalt nicht eben zuträglich.

Lodge am Stadtrand zu Arusha

Hotel ist in einem guten Zustand, es gibt dort ortsbedingt viele Moskitos so wie auch einiges an Echsen und Vöglen. Der angelgte Garten lädt zum Entspannen ein was aber nur selten möglich ist da die benachbarte Kirche tags wie auch nachts laute Gottesdienste feiert. (Siehe Beschreibung ruhige Zimmer können nicht garantiert werden) Viel europäisches Puplikum da die Lodge als Ausgangs / Endpunkt für Safaris gilt.

Hyggeligt gensyn med L'oasis.

For os var det et rigtig hyggeligt gensyn med L'oasis efter 18 år. Lodgen var stadig et rigtig dejligt sted midt i det lokale område. Selvom der nu er pool og andre "nye" bygninger følte vi os rigtig godt tilpas i de små runde "Afrikahytter". Meget venlig og opmærksom personale og rigtig dejlig morgenmad og aftensmad.

Een Oasis van rust in het drukke arusha

Een geweldig verblijf voor 1 of meerdere dagen. Na een safari, bezoek aan het drukke arusha of een andere activiteit is het heerlijk om hier tot rust te komen. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en de service is uitstekend. Iedereen werkt hier met een lach op zijn/haar gezicht en legt je volledig in de watten. Uitstekende prijs/kwaliteit verhouding

This place is impossible to find!

We knew we were going to be late arriving, and tried to call the hotel to alert them. No answer. When we got into Arusha, we had to ask a half dozen people before we found someone who knew where it was located. He went with us there, because there was no way to describe how to get there. The rooms were generally comfortable, but housekeeping didn't clean it until we checked out. Bathroom was substandard to us, with no towel racks anywhere in the room. Now that we know where it is, we might stay there again. But we'd probably choose something else that is alongside a major road.

great value

We really enjoyed our one night stay here. Beautiful gem tucked away from the busy road/markets. Room was large, clean, and nicely decorated. Breakfast was good. Grounds were well kept, green and tranquil. No AC in the room but wasn't necessary as it was cool on its own. Would recommend this place.

Peaceful retreat in the heart of Arusha.

Arrived in the middle of the night and were greeted by the owner. His staff made sure we settled well and had a hot meal. About the only dog friendly hotel in Arusha. Our pet had the run of the place, felt at home right away. Very happy with our choice.

Una vera e propria Oasi ad Arusha

Una vera e propria Oasi a pochi chilometri dal centro di Arusha. Per arrivarci occorre percorrere una strada sterrata piena di buche e attraversare un quartiere "povero" cittadino. Ma ne vale la pena. Enormi capanne, alcune in palafitte, accolgono le ampissime abitazioni. Doppio letto matrimoniale, oltre ad un letto singolo e un bagno confortevole. L'insonorizzazione della struttura lascia passare i rumori esterni (si sentiva la TV del ristorante) e quelli dei vicini. Colazione e pasti di buon livello.

Nice hotel away from the very busy and crowded city center. My room was not heated, so it got chilly at night, and I was near the road, so there was some noise once the locals started getting up in the morning. But, the shower was hot, and the breakfast was good. The staff was quite accommodating even with my post-midnight arrival.

Traditional hotel a little out of the way

Most of the rooms are in small thatched huts on very nice but not fancy compound. It is located a ways from from the center of town. No other places to eat nearby but the evening meal at the lodge was good. Place is not fancy but has a very local feel - not just another big concrete block of a hotel.
